BiblioCommons - Oakville Public Library

This is the first live implementation of BiblioCommons, the web based library catalog I've been working on since late 2007.

The Oakville implementation of BiblioCommons is available at opl.bibliocommons.com

BiblioCommons aims to bring the best aspects of the social web to public libraries.

The page seen here is a detail of one of my favourite books :)

You can see on this screen that we have brought together community activity/content and traditional library information (circulation, call number, shelf browse).

My responsibilities on this project centered around conceptualization, interaction design and UI development. We worked collaboratively with Smack Inc to design the skin for the app, which can be customized for each library using the service.
